The letter of the day is the letter 'C' and, of course, C stands for Cookie! Cookie Monster wants to eat the letter C, much to the chagrin of his companion. (The word 'cookie' appears at the top of the screen several times.)

In this video segment from Between the Lions, Rhymo, a hip-hop-singing rhinocerous, can't stop thinking about the letter "c." Rhymo and his hip-hop-singing hippopotamus friend, Hip, rap about the hard "c" and soft "c" sounds, giving examples of objec...ts that use the hard "c" (like candy) and the soft "c" (like celery). They also sing about the difference between the country and the city, using "c" phrases like cool breeze, clean air, cinder blocks, and cement. Hip has never been to the country and Rhymo has never been to the city, so they decide to collaborate and go on a world tour through the country and the city. Featured vocabulary includes country, city, cosmic, collaboration, celebration and other "c" words. This video segment provides a resource for Fluency, Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Language and Vocabulary Development, Letter Knowledge Awareness, and Phonological Awareness.

In this video segment from Between the Lions, the letter "c" appears in familiar words on a road sign, emphasizing print all around us, and highlighting the /k/ sound that the letter "c" makes. Each word is displayed on the sign, with the letter "c" ...highlighted to emphasize the same sound at the beginning of each word. (0:12)[more]

Featuring the Letter C. In this video children learn interactively about a specific letter of the English alphabet with Cullen and Gator in this educational and entertaining video. Three things are covered for each letter: viewing upper and lower ca...se letters, making the letter's sound together, and learning about a food that starts with that letter with Cullen and Gator. Here is a list of the foods used for each letter so you and your child can interactivity participate with the foods. Remember if you use the food at home or in the classroom the rule is, "it has to go in your mouth, but does not have to stay in." Of course, your child does not have to have the food in hand to learn and enjoy the video. In the food section of the videos four of the five senses are incorporated, shape recognition and even good manners are highlighted. (6mins)[more]
